UAE’s Shah gas project hits full output capacity – official

The Shah gas project which began operations this year in the United Arab Emirates has reached its full production capacity, a top company official said on Tuesday.

“We have ramped up to full production, which is one billion cubic feet per day (bcf),” Saif Ahmed al Ghafli, chief executive of Al Hosn Gas, told reporters on the sideline of an conference in Abu Dhabi.

Al Hosn Gas is the Shah gas development joint venture in which Abu Dhabi National Oil Co (Adnoc) holds a 60 per cent share and US-based Occidental Petroleum the other 40 per cent.
